Anti-BP180 autoantibody reactivity in healthy individuals is associated with Th2 predominance. Plasma levels of IL-2, IL-4, IL-5, IL-6, IL-9, IL-10, IL-13, IL-17A, IL-17F, IL-21, IL-22, IFN-γ, and TNF-α in anti-BP180-NC16A IgG-positive (n = 34) and anti-BP180-NC16A IgG-negative (n = 85) healthy individuals measured by flow cytometry. The squares/dots and bars indicate individual and mean (± SEM) values in each group, respectively. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001, ****P < 0.0001. ns not significant
